Lawsuit loansharks - lenders who prey on people when they are at their most vulnerable - should be regulated in Texas. These lenders offer quick cash in advance of legal settlements but often charge up to 150% of the loan in fees and interest. Since they are new to Texas, lawsuit lenders are operating under ZERO regulation in our state.

House Bill 1595, by Rep. Doug Miller, will protect Texas consumers from these predatory practices. But our lawmakers need to hear from us! An East Texas lawmaker, Rep. Lance Gooden, sits on the committee that has jurisdiction over the issue.

Please contact Rep. Gooden today and urge him to ask for a vote on this measure and to voteYES!
